It feels like loyalty is being tested in this episode, especially for Richard.

Looks like the anime really trying to make Elizabeth's status as relevant as possible. I personally don't like her character much but she is important in the story.

Interesting quote at the end regarding the 'devil'.

Catesby's loyalty is tested with Richard and the Duke of Buckingham on the dock, while the queen dowager Elizabeth continues to reel people into her bidding to get more power.

Not surprised that Richard would use his intersex body to win supporters like John Morton the Bishop of Ely, and the demonic self within him will thrive every time he yearns for support. The Devil within him isn't just sin anymore, it's hidden power to take back control by force.

The royal palace full of rotten apples, it's only Elizabeth, Thomas Stanley, Hastings and the Bishop of Ely allied to expedite the removal of the intersex Devil Richard to properly bear fruit as Elizabeth's mother-in-law Cecily so implied to reveal his secret to them. And Hastings used this info against him, which backfired immediately to render their deaths.

Catesby will follow Richard to the ends of the earth, plunged in darkness. This Devil is made demonic, his birth is devilish to begin with that's not his choice.

That was shitty. Even for the mother!

The queen dowager has more revenge left to take. Maybe it's because I don't like her, but I really want to see her defeated.

What does the witch who looks like Lust want? First she got Hastings to betray Richard, and then she gave Richard a way to get rid of him.

I feel horrible for Catesby. He's the best character. And, the only one who truly loves Richard and wishes for his happiness. But, he has to choose between his loyalty for two people, and see the one he loves being taken by someone else.

Great episode! I really do feel bad for Richard having people using his body like that...
The only person I really do like is Catesby now... he truly has sworn loyalty to him and has been there for him since he was a child...
He even killed Hastings for Richard it seems...

Looking forward to the next episode!

Are there any obstacles left for Richard? Unless new players join the battle for the throne, only the former queen and Richard's mother remain in opposition to the demon.
Oh well, there's also Jane the witch but it's still not clear what game she's playing at.

I want Catesby to stay pure forever. Sad that he's doing all this for Richard all because of Buckingham.

It's incredibly sad all that Catesby has to go through. He's loyal and the one and the only person who actually cares for Richard. Now his loyalty is tested and blame himself about not being able to save him. He just silently stays by his side because he thinks he can never be his light... If he just opens his true feelings towards to Richard, he definitly could be.

And the way Richard is throwing himself into these situations as a self-destructive thing, using his body as a bargaining tool... damn

Overall, it's sad how everyone is going bad.

Watching this because of Richard, but it's so painful to watch BuckinghamxRichard scene. I remember that my friend give me a manga link of this episode, can't believe they just let us wondering what Cecily actually saying that made everyone shock. But in the manga it's actually tell what she's said to them.

...So....did Richard "ugly-up" his arm so they wouldn't discover that he was born intersex?
After all...his mother just keeps saying the vague statement of "his body's a demon" but doesn't exactly spell out he has traits of two genders

figures they mute out exactly what she says...(and as mean as it sounds....someone needs to get rid of that obvious weakness -his mom- already...)
